A Gentile's recognition

Romans 3:29-30

1. What do Jews and Gentiles have in common?

Our God is the God of Jews and also the God of Gentiles. There is only one God, who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through that same faith.

Galatians 3:21-29

2. What no longer exists in Christ?

Before this faith came, we were held prisoners by the law, locked up until faith should be revealed. So the law was put in charge to lead us to Christ that we might be justified by faith.

Now that faith has come, we are no longer under the supervision of the law.

You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.
